NYPSI’s Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Program (PPP) is a 1-year certificate-granting intensive post-graduate training program. The curriculum combines theory and clinical study with case conferences as well as ongoing individual supervision with advanced faculty clinicians. As an advanced training program, we require completion of our PREP Program or equivalent educational and/or clinical experience.
